Title: Head Lights
Post by: WYATT on 13 August 2008, 19:25

Hi i find that the headlights just dont have much power and dont really show much of the road , it mite sound odd but i like the creamy look the old lights have not like the new BMW's where its white or blue , would this be the only way to have greater power for more light ?


i have a 1992 driver and i was wondering if you could show me what headlight bulbs are good ? i dont mind stock or aftermarket upgraded ones i just want some decent one's , Cheers Joe

HID's! you can get them in 4000k which still have the yellow'ey look to them other then bmw's and merc's which have between 6000k and 8000k hids, im soon to be getting 4000k hids when the funds become available :P but 3000k are bit hard to find as demand for 6000k is higher. hers a pic of different hod colours:

it all depends on wot you go for eg quility-wise but for good quility you looking around the 120 quid mark for the whole kit and the bulbs are spose to last for 20,000 hours.
